fwiw i dont see it happening. i dont see how this would slip out after following the texans non-sources the last few yrs.

imo the only way something like this gets out is if they allow it to... say if they were really targetting a certain mr miller with a trade up and didnt want to alert the many other 3-4 teams like the cards & browns to the possibility of taking him

Not so sure on that. Miller looks Top 3 but there are many recent mocks with Peterson slipping to #6 and #7. Even guys like Champ, Deion and Rod Woodson..all considered top athletes of drafts..didn't go Top 5. Teams like D-line and pass rush more.

On a side note I kept hearing the Cowboys have him as #1 on their board and want him badly. But last week there was also a rumor that the Rams at #14 wanted Dallas' spot at 9. The rumored offer was at least a 3rd. If it takes "at least a 3rd" to get from 14 to 9 than it is going to take more than a 3rd to get from 11 to the Top 5-6

Players can't be traded until a new CBA is agreed upon. so maybe replace Okoye with a 2012 4th or 5th rounder?

Hypothetically if Okoye's "trade value" is nothing but a 3rd day pick in next years' draft I'd just assume keep him and see what he can do with Wade. Say some 4-3 team calls us when the CBA is agreed to and asks for Okoye and that's all they offered, I'd say no.
